< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise Yahweh! (Happy are/He is pleased with) those who revere him, those who happily obey his commands.
הללו יה אשרי איש ירא את יהוה במצותיו חפץ מאד׃
2 Their children will prosper in their land; and their descendants will be blessed [by God].
גבור בארץ יהיה זרעו דור ישרים יברך׃
3 Their families [MTY] will be very wealthy [DOU], and [the results of] their righteous deeds will endure forever.
הון ועשר בביתו וצדקתו עמדת לעד׃
4 Godly/Righteous people are [like] lights [SIM] that shine in the darkness on those who are kind, merciful and righteous.
זרח בחשך אור לישרים חנון ורחום וצדיק׃
5 Things [will] go well for those who generously lend money to others and who conduct their businesses honestly.
טוב איש חונן ומלוה יכלכל דבריו במשפט׃
6 Righteous people will not be overwhelmed/worried/distressed [because of their troubles], and they will never be forgotten [by other people].
כי לעולם לא ימוט לזכר עולם יהיה צדיק׃
7 They are not afraid of [receiving] bad news; they confidently/completely trust in Yahweh.
משמועה רעה לא יירא נכון לבו בטח ביהוה׃
8 They are confident and not afraid, because they know that they will see [God defeat] their enemies.
סמוך לבו לא יירא עד אשר יראה בצריו׃
9 They give things generously to poor/needy [people]; [the results of] their kind deeds will endure forever, and they [will] be exalted and honored.
פזר נתן לאביונים צדקתו עמדת לעד קרנו תרום בכבוד׃
10 Wicked people see those things and are angry; they gnash their teeth [angrily], but they [will] disappear [and die]. The [wicked] things that they want to do [will] never happen.
רשע יראה וכעס שניו יחרק ונמס תאות רשעים תאבד׃
